Out look and different systems

[john]

Hello,

I have got two Laptops, one has windows Vista Business 64 bit and
outlook 2007, SP2.

The other laptop has windows 2000 XP professional 32 bit OS, I have
not installed outlook on this Laptop yet.

I am using the Vista Laptop for emailing etc. I would like to keep
this Laptop at my home and use the Windows XP Laptop at the office for
work and checking my emails.

But at the same time I want to keep the emails updated on both
Laptops. If I read, reply and check emails from my Windows XP Laptop
then I would like those replies and read emails updated in the Laptop
carrying Vista at home.

I need advice that how can I get this setup work? Plus what version of
Outlook ahould i install on the windows XP Laptop?

Regards,
John

Doesn't matter what version of Outlook - the only way you can do easily what
you want is to use an IMAP email account, unless you have Exchange Server...

Hi,

Would you please give me more details.

You need to either keep moving the pst between machines or use an IMAP
account, assuming your ISP supports IMAP. IT's easier than moving the pst
all the time but you'll need to check with your provider to find out if you
can use it.
